I want to became a judge after 12th class. What is the procedure for becoming a judge without being a advocate.

Becoming a judge or a magistrate in India is perhaps one of the most respected/coveted positions one could have dreamt of. In a democratic country like ours, where the judiciary enjoys Independent status, becoming a judge in a position of responsibility and pride. The following are the two steps process for becoming judge in India as under. Step-1: The first requirement to become a judge in India is to possess an LL.B. Degree from any University/College recognised by the Bar Council of India. Step-2: Once the LL.B. Degree is in hand, the graduate has to compete for the State Judicial Services Examination. This examination is held by respective State Governments from time to time. The examination consists of three stages Preliminary, Mains, and Viva-Voice.
